Eagles center snaps the ball off fellow offensive lineman

In a play that defied both logic and physics, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce somehow managed to snap a ball off his rear and into the arm of right guard Todd Herremans.

You see bad snaps on shotguns all the time. The balls either go too high, scrape the ground because they’re too low or are inaccurate in their delivery to the quarterback.

But hitting another offensive lineman? That’s a new one.

It’s too bad Mark Sanchez is injured because it’d be fascinating to see how he’d try to top this usurper to his buttfumbling throne. It’s like when The Beatles tried to improve on Pet Sounds and Blonde on Blonde and delivered Sgt. Pepper’s.

The popular theory is that Kelce assumed Michael Vick was under center, not lined up in the shotgun. It makes the most sense, even if it’s hard to imagine how Kelce wouldn’t have felt Vick’s hands nor realized he was barking signals from four yards away, not right above his ear.

The buttsnap was just a part of the comedy of errors for Chip Kelly’s team in the first half. A fumbled punt return gave Kansas City the ball inside the red zone, a Michael Vick interception was returned for a touchdown by Eric Berry and Kelly, taking a page from Jim Zorn, inexplicably called for a swinging gate play on an extra-point attempt that was easily stuffed by the Chiefs special teams.
